Property Management Pricing Structures on Long Island
Our property management pricing is tailored to your estate’s size, complexity, and level of activity. We typically use one—or a thoughtful combination—of four primary models.
Model 2
Percentage of Operating Expenses (Cost-Plus / Overlay)
How it works: A percentage fee (10%−15%) added to all routine vendor invoices and maintenance costs managed by the estate manager.
Why owners prefer it: Aligns the manager’s compensation directly with the volume and complexity of work being supervised on the property.
Model 3
Project Management Markup (Capital Improvements)
How it works: For major renovations, restoration, historic preservation, tennis court overhauls, dock/seawall maintenance, or new construction, managers charge an oversight fee (10%−20%) on top of total contractor bids.
Why owners prefer it: Ensures an experienced eye is on-site daily acting as the owner’s representative to keep contractors on schedule and within budget.
Model 4
Hourly / On-Demand Fees
How it works: Billing per hour or on-demand for custom requests, event staging/prep, emergency middle-of-the-night dispatch, car detailing transport, or personal concierge services.
Why owners prefer it: Keeps base retainers lower while giving flexibility for seasonal or as-needed tasks.
